    Advertising (learn more)

    Advertise virtually anything here, with CPM banner ads, CPM email ads and CPC contextual links. You can target relevant areas of the site and show ads based on geographical location of the user if you wish.

    Starts at just $1 per CPM or $0.10 per CPC.

Trying to make sense of all this ?

    i think you need a professional to SEO your website because you market is very competitive, but lucrative too.., so you may need to hire a SEO professional to rank you better for your desired keywords.

    you can also learn SEO by yourself, a good place to start is here:

    Choose the best keywords that you want to target. Keywords that are not too competitive but has high volume of search. Then create a content using your targeted keywords. Put also your keywords on the title and on the alt tags. Use your keywords as anchor text.

    Get more links to get better rankings and also a source of traffic.

    Do this to get more links

    1. Forums posting
    2. Directory submission
    3. Article submission
    4. Press release submission
    5. Blogging
    6. Joining social bookmarking site
    7. Link exchange with related sites

    So do I need to even SEO the site or just advertise it, I was thinking of doing both. Will I need a professional to do this ? or is it something I can just do myself ?

    You need to optimize your site as well...You can do it by yourself but it may take a while before gaining your desired traffic...you need to weigh your options...if you don't have the time to learn the ways of optimizing then it is better to hire a professional SEO...

    get a sitemap as well, use H1 tags with your keywords in them, etc. This will all help.
